We had a swarm in our #CBR yard a couple of years ago. It was fascinating to watch the bees move into their new home. I was amazed when the bee guy just put the hive into the back of his car & drove off without any protective gear on

The composition of this photo of Erin Patterson (in quoted article) gets me every time I see it. Saintly
A painting of St Agatha, looking skyward with tears in her eyes & clutching her breast. In the quoted article, Erin Patterson is being helped out of a divvy van and is portrayed looking skyward as if appealing to a higher power (otherwise known as skyfaries, or non-existent entities).

This one? I found it in an op shop & the venues & 'party schedules' are hilariously dated, & in some cases so casually racist it's shocking

Not catastrophic, but Canberrans felt this during daily COVID press conferences when a human used AI to give us the immortal 'Ken Behrens'

A still from a 2020 press conference when chief minister Andrew Barr thanked Canberrans, but the subtitle reads, 'I want to thank Ken Behrens for doing the right thing'
